Chapter 7: Ofcourse death is serious.

Teresa's Pov

"Mum, what do you wanna talk about?" I asked mum as we trailed her to the living room.

I plopped back on the couch but Zeke and mum kept standing.

I am honestly tensed about what is gonna happen, seeing the fact my mum is actually tensed! And that is saying something!

"I am sorry Zeke, b-but she won't be able to make it." My mum said, I am pretty sure its about somebody's death or something but the thing is I don't know whose.

All I saw was Zeke sinking to his knees, his face in his hands and then I realised it was something dead serious.

Good work sherlock, ofcourse death is dead serious!

"What happened?" I asked looking from mum to Zeke.

"She can't make it, my mum, she fought her cancer but it came back and now it is its 4th and the last stage." It was him who replied, I found my mouth hanging open, this guy has courage, how come he was even able to reply to my idiotic question!

That's why he had ended his cockiness and actually started to act modest, I have seen Maria, his mother a few times, she wasn't exactly extremely beautiful but her personality shone through her, anyone can see why Zeke's father fell for her, just to tell you she was from a really poor family, and when they married Zeke's father wasn't well off, yeah, I am talking about a multimillionaire here, it wasn't family inheritance instead it was hardwork from his side extreme hardwork. His mother was the most modest person in the world normally she wore normal clothing not Calvin Klein or Louis Vitton, not even clothes made by her husband's brand, its not like she never wore them, she did but only on certain occasions, I have seen her in simple jeans from us polo assassin and a top from mango walking down the red carpet, too simple.
